Our MA Childhood, Youth and Social Policy degree explores children and young people's lives in diverse contexts. It critically examines current research on children, young people and families with reference to relevant theories and concepts in human geography and the wider social sciences. The programme will develop your understanding of the key concepts and theorisations of childhood and youth studies, as well as enhance your knowledge on children and young people's lives across the global north and south. It will also help to develop your skills in a range of research methods, especially those relevant to childhood and youth studies, youth development, and to young people's ‘voice'. You will complete an independent research project on themes related to children, youth and/or families. Our School of Social Sciences and Humanities offers a unique environment to study this subject, drawing on internationally-recognised expertise from human geography and social and policy studies. Furthermore, this programme benefits from the Centre for Research in Social Policy based in the School, who have developed the influential Minimum Income Standard for the UK.
